Abstract
As a Professional Writing (PW) student, I saw that PW students could benefit greatly from using the writing center but that currently this resource was left untapped. In order to have the center be better used by PW students, I thought offering more PW tailored help could achieve better use of our space. In this session I will go over the survey and interview research that was conducted to find out what PW students would want out of the writing center. I will also talk specifically about what types of projects and mediums PW students would like help with and how such help relates to our specific writing center mission. rnAfter discussing the needs of PW students, I will discuss how our center plans to complete this task. I will briefly talk about our Digital Writing Consultants (DCW) and how these consultants can help with this task. Time will also be spent talking about the possibility of creating podcasts, workshops, and online spaces that can help with PW studentsÂ’ composing needs.
